Lap of Luxury

Responding to Karen's post...

We did stay at the swanky Fairmont Hotel last night in Chicago, which had a nice spa and offered $60 specialty bathes that the hotel's bubble bath connoisseur (talk about a career specialty!) can run for any guest. And tonight we're staying somewhere pretty nice as well, though the Secret Service might literally gag me if I say which hotel it is.

I've been racking my brain, and the brains of my fellow travelers, for an equally, um, unique file on the Obama side. But I have to say it's all been pretty standard fair. Although, ABC's embed, Sunlen Miller, points out Obama's press has twice gotten the VIP treatment in big arenas where they covered his monster rallies from the luxurious sky boxes.
